How it continues...

When searching through your familietree, you come across many interesting details, some sad, some rightdown hilarious. I found a number of links with Charlemagne but when doing further research I found a list of geneaology based on old mediaeval teksts and legends. The beginning of the list is based on historical fact but the further back in time we go, the more fact changes into fiction. Kings whose past existence was accepted as fact are now considered myth. Somewere in this list fact touches fiction. Legends are mixed with mythology and stories from the Old Testament It won't change your life (or mine) but it made me laugh. I hope it will do the same for you. You'll have to go through the intire list couse the fun part is all the way down at the buttom of the list.
